[Federal Register Volume 78, Number 184 (Monday, September 23, 2013)] [Notices] [Pages 58318-58320] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 2013-23060] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES National Institutes of Health Submission for OMB Review; 30-day Comment Request: The Framingham Heart Study (FHS) SUMMARY: Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review and approval of the information collection listed below. This proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register on May 7, 2013, pages 26639-41 and allowed 60-days for public comment. No public comments were received. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), National Institutes of Health, may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection that has been extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Direct Comments to OMB: Written comments and/or suggestions regarding the item(s) contained in this notice, especially regarding the estimated public burden and associated response time, should be directed to the: Office of Management and Budget, Office of Regulatory Affairs, [email protected] or by fax to 202-395-6974, Attention: NIH Desk Officer. [[Page 58319]] Comment Due Date: Comments regarding this information collection are best assured of having their full effect if received within 30-days of the date of this publication. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request more information on the proposed project or to obtain a copy of data collection plans and instruments, contact Dr. Gina Wei, Division of Cardiovascular Sciences, NHLBI, NIH, Two Rockledge Center, 6701 Rockledge Drive, MSC 7936, Bethesda, MD, 20892-7936, or call non-toll-free number (301) 435-0416, or email your request, including your address to: [email protected]. Formal requests for additional plans and instruments must be requested in writing. Proposed Collection: The Framingham Heart Study, 0925-0216, Revision National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), National Institutes of Health (NIH). Need and Use of Information Collection: The Framingham Heart Study will continue to conduct morbidity and mortality follow-up, as well as examinations, for the purpose of studying the determinants of cardiovascular disease. Morbidity and mortality follow-up will continue to occur in all of the cohorts (Original, Offspring, Third Generation, Omni Group 1, and Omni Group 2). Examinations will continue to be conducted on the Original, Offspring, and Omni Group 1 Cohorts. The numbers of Offspring and Omni Group 1 participants to be examined for this OMB submission are much smaller than those during the last OMB approval period. This is because a great majority of these two cohorts have already completed their examinations. The small number of participants remaining to be examined is reflected in the decrease in the estimated annualized burden hours for these two cohorts as well as for the entire study, compared to the last OMB approval period. OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There is no cost to the respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 4264.
